Job Description

You'll bring accident-damaged cars back to factory standard at the dealership body shop in Krugersdorp. It's a practical job: you'll see what you got done before you go home.

The site is in Krugersdorp; early starts mean public transport timing matters, so check your route before applying.

What you'll actually do

  • Mask up vehicles properly to keep overspray off glass and trim
  • Cut and polish to remove dust marks and orange peel
  • Repair dents with hammers, dollies and a stud welder
  • Apply filler, sand and prime to a smooth, ready surface
  • Strip damaged panels, bumpers and trims and bag the fixings

What you need

  • Good colour vision and a steady hand
  • Physically able to stand, bend and kneel for long periods
  • A portfolio or references from previous body shops
  • Knowledge of spray booth safety and respirator use
  • Experience with modern waterborne or high-solids paint systems
  • Able to work to insurer repair times and quality standards

Nice if you have

  • Measuring jig and electronic measuring experience
  • Experience as a workshop controller in a body shop
  • Aluminium and high-strength steel repair training

What's in it for you

  • Clean, modern booth and prep area
  • Paint supplier training courses
  • Full respirator and spray suit supplied

How to apply

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
  2. Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): ID copy certified at a police station, before-and-after photos of your repairs plus trade certificate or references.
  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 8 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Krugersdorp.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • Expect a practical test panel. Arrive early so you can see the booth and equipment first.
  • Before-and-after photos are your best proof. Keep them on your phone, ready to show at the interview.
